Author: KateP
On the 24th December 2018 the Bonanza Universe lost one of our dear friends and writers. Kathleen Pitts (KateP) was a prolific writer of Bonanza fan fiction, a familiar name throughout most of the Bonanza forums where her stories are posted, read, and enjoyed by so many for so long.
Born in Bristol, England, UK Kate was married with two children and grandchildren. She was a founding member of Bonanzabrits and eventually became the Moderator for that forum where she kindly led many to write and enjoy everything Bonanza for many years. She was kind, patient, and always encouraging to fans old and new.
Sadly three years ago she retired from Brits and from writing when she was diagnosed with cancer. We are more than grateful that so many still have the advantage and pleasure of reading her stories here on Brand, as well as other sites for Bonanza fanfiction. KateP will live on through her stories, and from the many friends she made over the years.
